Austin Siebert Placed On COVID List
Detroit Lions kicker Austin Seibert has been placed on the COVID list, putting his availability for the team's game against the Ravens in question. Seibert is the fifth kicker the Lions have had on their roster since the beginning of training camp and is 2-for-3 on the season. If Seibert is unable to play, the […]
Cairo Santos Not A Strong Week 3 Play
Chicago Bears kicker Cairo Santos is hoping to see his opportunities increase Week 3 against the Browns. Santos connected on both of his field goal attempts last week but the Bears offense has struggled consistently in both games this season. Chicago will now turn to rookie quarterback Justin Fields to elevate the team's play against […]
Can Greg Joseph Bounce Back?
Minnesota Vikings kicker Greg Joseph will have a chance to put his Week 2 performance behind him this Sunday against the Seahawks. Joseph missed what would have been a game-winning field goal so now the Vikings will try and stave off an 0-3 start against Seattle. The Seahawks have already allowed five field goals through […]
Mason Crosby Off To Quiet Start
Green Bay Packers kicker Mason Crosby could struggle to post a strong fantasy line Week 3 against the 49ers. Crosby is only 1-for-1 through the first two games on field goals but is 5-for-5 on extra-point attempts. The Packers will go up against a 49ers team that has allowed only two field goal attempts through […]
Packers Defense Has Tough Week 3 Test
The Green Bay Packers defense will have a stiff matchup Week 3 against the 49ers on Sunday Night Football. The Packers came up with a fumble recovery and one interception last week against the Lions but will face a 49ers offense that is off to a strong start. San Francisco has allowed only one sack […]
Ryan Succop A Starting Option Against Rams
Tampa Bay Buccaneers kicker Ryan Succop is a viable starting option in Week 3 against the Rams in what is expected to be a high-scoring contest. Succop has connected on his only field goal attempt in 2021 while making 10 of 11 extra-point attempts as well. The fact that he plays on a high-octane offense […]
Nick Folk Remains On Streaming Radar
New England Patriots kicker Nick Folk has made a team-record 33 consecutive field-goal attempts. He was brought in to replace kicker Quinn Nordin (abdominal), who has been placed on the Injured Reserve. They recently signed Folk, which means he'll likely be the kicker going forward. He has been reliable through the first two weeks, so […]
Aldrick Rosas Should Remain On Benches Against Patriots
New Orleans Saints kicker Aldrick Rosas is not a strong start this week. The kicker has been accurate thus far, making his only field-goal attempt and all six extra-point attempts in two games. Nevertheless, with the Saints' offense not firing on all cylinders all the time, that likely will limit the opportunities for Rosas. On […]

Week 3 Kicker Streamers and Starts - 2021 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings
Hopefully y'all read this article last week because you would've gotten a "leg-up" on your competition. Yes, I am going to try and make it 17 straight weeks with a terrible kicker pun to start each article. To be fair, I'll try not to use any duplicates. In all seriousness, last week my four streamers […]
Randy Bullock A Borderline Streamer In Week 3
Tennessee Titans kicker Randy Bullock was promoted to the active roster ahead of last Sunday's game against the Seattle Seahawks and might have secured the starting job with his massive performance in Week 2. He went 4-for-5 on field-goal attempts and 3-for-3 in extra-point tries in last Sunday’s 33-30 overtime win over the Seattle Seahawks. […]
Graham Gano A Strong Streaming Option For Week 3
New York Giants kicker Graham Gano is a strong streaming option for Sunday's Week 3 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons. The Falcons defense has allowed a league-high 80 points and 775 yards of total offense to opposing teams in 2021. Gano has now converted 35 straight field goals and was 5-for-5 in last Thursday's loss […]
Chris Boswell A Low-End Option In Week 3
Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Chris Boswell has been busy through the first two weeks of the season, making all four of his field goals and adding four extra points. The veteran kicker will look to keep it going in Week 3 against the Cincinnati Bengals. Cincinnati has only allowed three field goals through the first two […]
Greg Zuerlein Looks For A More Consistent Week 3
Dallas Cowboys kicker Greg Zuerlein had a bad Week 1 but followed it up with a strong performance in Week 2. The Cowboys added a kicker to their practice squad this week though, perhaps putting pressure on their starter to kick like he did against the Chargers and not like he did against the Bucs. […]
Jason Myers Should Be Busy In Week 3
Seattle Seahawks kicker Jason Myers just needs a field goal or two to really boost his fantasy day in Week 3 against the Minnesota Vikings. Myers is 8-for-9 on his kicking attempts so far this season, with the lone extra-point miss coming in Week 2. The Vikings are giving up an average of 30.5 points […]
Jake Elliott Not Exciting For Week 3 Lineups
Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott is not an exciting option for Week 3 fantasy lineups. Elliott has made two of his three field goal tries and all three of his extra points this season, but he doesn't have a big enough leg to make long kicks and the Eagles offense generally just doesn't seem to […]
Matt Gay Should Be Busy In Week 3
Los Angeles Rams kicker Matt Gay has been one of the best kickers in the NFL so far this year, and he should be busy again in Week 3 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Gay is a perfect 11-for-11 on kicking opportunities this season, and his offense is only going to continue to improve. Against […]
Matt Prater A Top Option For Week 3
Arizona Cardinals kicker Matt Prater is ranked 10th among kickers through the first two weeks of the season. Prater is 9-for-9 on extra points and 3-for-4 on field-goal attempts. In Week 2, he made a 50-plus-yard field goal against the Minnesota Vikings. In Week 1, the Cardinals put up 38 points against the Titans, which […]
Dustin Hopkins A Streaming Option
Washington Football Team kicker Dustin Hopkins is a solid streaming option for fantasy managers heading into Week 3. Hopkins could be in line for a few field goal attempts as Taylor Heinicke and the Washington offense face a tough matchup against the solid Buffalo defense. The former Bills draft pick made all three of his […]
Nick Folk Signed To The Patriots 53-Man Roster
The New England Patriots have signed kicker Nick Folk to the 53-man roster Tuesday. He was promoted to the Patriots' active roster before each of the first two games this season. In Week 2, the 36-year-old drilled four field-goal attempts in the 25-6 win over New York Jets. Folk is 7-for-7 in field goal attempts, […]
Titans Waive Ryan Santoso
The Tennessee Titans waived kicker Ryan Santoso from their practice squad on Monday. Santoso landed in Tennessee after being waived by the Carolina Panthers after he missed an extra point in the Week 1 win over the New York Jets. The 26-year-old has just two field-goal attempts in the NFL, but he's made both of […]
Zane Gonzalez Remains Panthers Kicker For Week 3
Carolina Panthers kicker Zane Gonzalez made his team debut during the Week 2 win over the Saints. While he accounted for eight points, he also had his 55-yard field goal attempt blocked and he missed an extra point. Head coach Matt Rhule reiterated Monday that Gonzalez would be the team's kicker moving forward, even if […]
Justin Tucker Converts Only Field-Goal Attempt In Week 2
Baltimore Ravens kicker Justin Tucker went 1-for-1 in field-goal attempts and 3-for-3 in extra-point tries during Sunday's 36-35 win over the Kansas City Chiefs. He drilled a 43-yard field goal in the second quarter to cut the Ravens deficit to 21-17. The Ravens kicker totaled six points in Sunday's win. He has now converted all […]
Jason Myers Misses A Key Extra Point In Week 2
Seattle Seahawks kicker Jason Myers remains one of the NFL's most consistent kickers, but he had a costly miss leave his foot in the team's Week 2 loss to the Tennessee Titans. Myers made his lone field-goal attempt, but he went just three of four on extra-point attempts. The team eventually went on to overtime […]
Younghoe Koo Makes Lone Field-Goal Attempt
Atlanta Falcons kicker Younghoe Koo made his only field-goal attempt and also made two extra points in the blowout loss to Tampa on Sunday. Koo remains perfect on the season and has made all three of his field-goal attempts and both of his extra-point attempts. On an offense led by quarterback Matt Ryan, there's always a […]
Brandon McManus Stays Perfect In Win Over Jaguars
Denver Broncos kicker Brandon McManus hit all three of his field-goal attempts (long of 46 yards) and both of his extra points in the 23-13 Week 2 victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars. The strong-legged kicker has now nailed all five of his field goals and all five of his extra-point tries to open the season […]
Josh Lambo Poor In Week 2 Loss
Jacksonville Jaguars kicker Josh Lambo missed his only two field-goal attempts in the team's Week 2 loss to the Broncos while converting his only extra-point opportunity. Lambo also missed his only field goal attempt in Week 1, but for whatever reason, head coach Urban Meyer isn't ready to move on. Meyer said that he's "concerned," […]
Zane Gonzalez Misses Field Goal In First Game With Panthers
Carolina Panthers kicker Zane Gonzalez went 2-for-3 in field goals and 2-for-3 in extra points in Sunday's win over the Saints. Gonzalez played his first game with the Panthers on Sunday after joining the team just this week. The kicker started off decent, but those misses could be a slight cause for concern. Going forward, […]

Tennessee Titans kicker Randy Bullock went 4-for-5 on field-goal attempts and 3-for-3 in extra-point tries in Sunday's 33-30 win over the Seattle Seahawks.
